PREFACE. 



Tins edition of Xenophon's Cyropsedia is an exact reprint of 
L. Dindorf 's revised edition, Leipzig, 1826. Besides his edition^ 
which comes nearer perhaps to the true reading of the text 
than any other one extant, in the preparation of the Notes tlio 
editor has had access to the following editions : 1. Fischer's 
Commentarius in Xenophontis Cyropsediam, edited by C. T. 
Kuinoel, Leipzig, 1803. 2. Schneider's. 3. Era. Poppo's, 
Leipzig, 1821. 4. F. H. Bothe's, Leipzig, 1821. 5. C. Lange's, 
Halle, 1822. C. C. F. A. Nobbe's, Leipzig, 1825. 7. Borne- 
mann's, Leipzig, 1838. 8. Hutchinson's, Glasgow, 1821. 0. 
Barker's, London, 1831. The editor has derived much assist- 
tance also from the Lexicon Xenophonteum of Sturz, and G. Ch. 
Crusius' excellent Lexicon of the Cyropoedia, published at Leip- 
zig in 1844. 

The grammatical references have been made mainly to 
Sophocles' Grammar and to the School Grammar of Kiihner, 
published at Andover, 1844. References are also made to the 
Grammars of Buttmann, Matthiae, Thiersch, Rost, Jelf's edition 
of Kuhner's Larger Grammar (Oxford, 1842), and to the valuable 
Grammar of Prof. Crosby, of Dartmouth College. The sheets of 
the Elementary Grammar of Kiihner, now in a course of publica- 
tion at Andover, were kindly sent me by the publishers, but 
unfortunately too late to make use of them in the way of reference, 

In the preparation of the Notes, the same principle is observed, 
which the editor laid down for his guidance in preparing the notes 
of the Anabasis of Xenophon and Homer's Odyssey, viz., on the 
one hand, to avoid such exuberance of translation and explana- 
tion as shall tend to diminish the student's self-dependence, and 
train him up to habits of indolence and inattention to grammatical 
analysis ■ and on the other, to shun that meajrerness of commen- 



PREFACE. 

tary and disregard of exegetical difficulties, which leaves him to 
grope his way unaided through the most dark and vexatious 
passages. That the editor has always kept on this medium line, 
is more than he dares to claim or even hope for, however sincere 
and strenuous may have been his efforts thus to do. 

In respect to the accentuation and punctuation of the text, 
that of Dindorf 's edition has been invariably followed. As in the 
Notes of the Odyssey, so in those of the present edition, every 
oxytone standing before a punctuation-mark, whether in a Greek 
or English sentence, receives the acute accent. If it has nc 
other argument in its favor, this promotes uniformity. It will be 
seen, that in the Notes the final g is written only at the end of 
words, while in the text it is found at the end of a word com- 
pounded with another. A few pages of the text were stereotyped 
before it caught the eye of the editor, or, in this respect, it would 
have been made uniform with the Notes. 

The Summary is that prefixed to the Hon. M. A. Cooper's 
Translation. The Grammatical Index and the Index of Persons, 
have been prepared with much pains, and it is hoped will be of 
assistance to the student by way of reference. 

The editor avails himself of this occasion to express his 
thanks to the Professors and Classical Teachers, who have 
received with so much kindness and favor his previous contribu- 
tions to the cause of classical literature. The friendly urgency 
with which many of them have pressed upon him the continuance 
of his editorial labors, has cheered him on in those hours of toil, 
which the care of a large classical school has compelled him to 
subtract from the time usually given to recreation and repose. 
Hoping that this volume will show, that the favor with which his 
orevious publications have been received, has not tempted him by 
an undue reliance upon the past to be less careful in his efforts 
to merit their future approbation, he commits it to them and to 
the public with the sincere desire, that it may help, in some small 
degree at least, to advance the interests of classical learning in 
our country, and render the study of the Greek language pleasing 
and profitable to the youthful student. 

Cornelius Institute, May 4, 1846.

BOOK I. 

CHAPTER I. 

Ktiyw flctidela, the education of Cyrus, the discipline of Cyrus. 
The book, however, treats not only of the earlier years of Cyrus, 
hut also of his whole life, his laws, institutions, habits in peace and 
in war, management of his empire, and the means by which he 
gave strength and permanence to his government. It may be re- 
garded in the light of a historical romance, founded in the main 
upon facts, but dressed up and embellished with much that is most 
unquestionably fictitious. It has ever been regarded as a most fas- 
cinating work, and from the purity and wisdom of its maxims, its 
high moral tone, its simplicity of style, and the importance of the 
subject, has been considered a very appropriate classic for the 
young student, and has from time immemorial found its way, in 
whole or in some of its parts, into almost every academic course of 
study in this country and in Europe. The following quotation from 
Smith's Diet. Gr. and Rom. Biog. embodies in a small compass so 
much that is useful for the right understanding of the design of the 
Cyropaedia and the true character of Cyrus, that I take great plea- 
sure in inserting it in this place. " Xenophon wished to show that 
the government of men is not so difficult as is commonly supposed, 
provided that the ruler be wise ; and to illustrate this he holds fortli 
the example of Cyrus, whom he endows with all virtue, courage, 
and wisdom, and whose conduct is meant for a practical illustration 
and his discourses for an exposition, of the maxims of the Socratic 
philosophy, so far as Xenophon was capable of understanding it 
Of course it would not have done to have represented this beau

ideal of a philosophic king, as the dethroner of his own grandfather 
[according to the more veritable history of Herodotus], as the true 
Asiatic despot and conqueror, and as the victim of his own ambitious 
schemes. It seems incredible that any one should rise from the pe- 
rusa 7 of the Cyropa^deia without the firm conviction that it is a ro- 
mance, and, moreover, that its author never meant it to be taken for 
anything else ; and still more incredible is it that any one should 
have recognized in the picture of Xenophon the verisimilitude of 
an Asiatic conqueror in the sixth century before Christ. That Cy- 
rus was a great man, is proved by the empire he established ; that 
he was a good man, according to the virtues of his age and country, 
we need not doubt; but if we would seek further for his likeness, 
we must assuredly look rather at Genghis Khan or Timour than at 
the Cyrus of Xenophon."

usage is, however, more frequently found in the Latin than in the 

Greek writers. Cf. K. § 241. R. 12. oacu, how many. - 5r\fjio~

rtvso&cu, to live under any other form of government ; literally, to 
be a 7toltxt\q {citizen) in some other way. aXlwq nwq is opposed to 
iv drjfioy.garta which follows. av, also. bhyaoyjcu, oligar- 
chies, i. e. governments administered by the few. rvoaivflv, to 

become tvqavvoi, i. e. absolute sovereigns. Reference is had in this 
word to the way in which absolute power was obtained, rather than 

to the manner in which it was used. ol fihv — ol ds, some — others 

(S. § 142. 1), are in partitive apposition with oaat. See N. on II. 2.

voi, as being = being regarded as. wq is joined to a participle when 
the action is only something supposed or thought of. K. §.312. 6.

in the place of the pronoun, in order to give fulness to the sentence, 
or as Fischer remarks, "ut m i Q-ofitvoiq habent quasi suum admini- 
sulum.*

both — and, as well — as also. The connection is more emphatic and 
definite than though rh — t* had been employed. Cf. K. § 321. 1. b. 

pov/.oXoi is in apposition with ao/ovxiq, and (iowv depends on 

ao/ovrsq as containing the idea of preeminence. K. § 275. 1. 

ol xaXovfismi, those who are called. S. § 140. 3. &v depends 

upon iniaxoLxutai (S. § 184. 1) and refers to xovxwv in the following 
clause, as its antecedent, the inversion taking place for the sake of 

emphasis. Cf. S. § 150. 4. ^omv belongs properly to xovxojv, 

and is put after the relative by attraction. (S. $ 151. 3). The na- 
tural order would be: ao/ovxeq xovxoyv X>(ao)V — wv av tniaxaxwvi. 

sly.oxojq, rightly, properly. av — vofd'Qoivxo. S. § 217. 2. 

toCvvv, further, moreover, is here continuative. xaq aye'Xaq, the 

herds, properly of oxen, but here used of all the domestic animals 

such as horses, sheep, oxen, etc. Cf. VII. 3. § 7. xolq vopevoiv 

(S. § 140. 3) depends on TtttfaoO-cu. S. § 196. 2. %, dat. sing. 

fem. of the relative oq, r\, o, with adverbial signification, which way, 

where. vfytovxcu is used absolutely here, and /o)Qla depends on 

xaxd, or some other preposition, to be supplied. a7Zf'xovxai, 

abstain; literally, keep themselves off, the verb being in the middle 

voice. jLv== ixstvaiv wv (S. § 150. 5), of which equivalent ixstvav 

depends on aTte'/ovxav (S. § 180. 1), and «»', upon andoywm. S. 

§ 180. 2. xaondlq refers to the milk, cheese, flesh, wool, hides, 

hair, horns, etc. which are obtained from the domestic animals here 

spoken of. xoCvvv (continuative) introduces an additional proof 

of the docility and obedience of these tame animals. xolq yiyvo- 

uivaiq belongs to xolq xaontilq. When the attributive follows its sub- 
stantive, the article is usually repeated. This is done for the sake 
of emphasis, or to contrast the substantive with other objects of the 

same kind. Cf. K. § 245. 3. a; S. § 140. 2. xQV a&ai depends 

on liaot, and has for its subject iy.etvovq understood, referring to xovq 

vofitaq. S. § 15S. 3. ovxujq onwq, even as, in the very way. The 

union of these particles gives emphasis to the comparison. I'xi 

xoCvvv (==ixi (5V), besides, furthermore. fio&ritit&a, we have known. 

wq [ir] mld-to&at,, so as not to obey. See N. on ioqxs — agiovv, 

§ 5 xolq oioxovav refers to the keepers, and o)q)s).ov/utvoiq, to the 

owners of these herds. ovq av, whomsoever, av with the relative 

and subjunctive belongs to the relative to which it gives indefinite- 
ness. Cf. Jelf's Kuhn. § 828. 2 j S. § 214. 4. Fischer remarks, that 
it is not surprising that Xenophon speaking of the kingly office 
should associate in his mind kings and shepherds, when in all lan- 
guages, rulers and magistrates are compared to shepherds, and the 
people over whom they exercise authority, to a flock of sheep.

See N. on V. 1. § 9. Kvgoq — JZYoo-?/?, Cyrus of Persia. When 

the noun in apposition gives an indefinite explanation, the article is 
omitted. K. § 244. R. 6. Cyrus the founder of the Persian empire 
is usually designated Cyrus the Elder, in order to distinguish him 
from the Younger Cyrus, whose expedition against his brother 
Artaxerxes Mnemon, is detailed in the first book of Xenophon's

supposes that the negative fit} ov is less strong and positive than that 
by/*?/ alone, but this is justly questioned ty Kuhner (Cf. Jelf's edit. 
§ 750. Obs. 5), who regards it as a more emphatic negative. Cf. K. 
§ 318. 10; S. § 225. 1. Sturz defines ^r\ in this place by ne forte, 
ut forte non, and supplies wq = (ort) before it. Steph. says that 
j u,^= i t(tj7rorf, and that the oratio anoqr\i,iaxiy.r\ {doubtful mode of 

speaking) suited best the modesty of Xenophon. r\ is put for 

fit] in dependence on turavoisiv, which takes the time of rivayy.aX^o- 
fit fra. This substitution gives vividness and emphasis to the thought. 
Cf. S. § 214. N. 1. It has r6 — aq/ziv for its subject, and is followed 
by iwv — iqywv denoting that to which the subject belongs. S.

at different times in extent, as it was enlarged or diminished by the 
fluctuations of war. The same holds true of most of the ancient 
countries, and renders it extremely difficult to fix definitely their 

boundaries. 'IXXvgmv. Illyria was situated on the eastern shore

India, for we find (III. 2. § 27) that the Chaldeans had frequently 
served under the Indian monarch, which shows that their country 
could not have been very far from the XaldaloL and the 'Aqpividt. 
My own impression is that Xenophon in this place has inserted a 
fabulous people, in order to give more fulness to the extent of the 
dominions of Cyrus. He selected India, because from the vast 
region to which this name was really given, it would add more to 
the extent and splendor of the empire of Cyrus, than the name of 

any other country which he could have selected. Kikhuav.

depends expresses time past, (S. § 216. 3), or, as Kiihner remarks 
(§ 337. 9. b), because a future action is spoken of which may be con- 
sidered as the condition of the principal clause. Here the only con- 
dition, on which the attendants of Cyrus could shoot at the game, 
was the previous satiety of Cyrus with the sport. The student will

of was probably Nebuchodonosor (the Nebuchadnezzar of the Scrip- 
tures), and the name of his son, who made this hunting excursion, 
was Evil Merodach. In the second year of his reign (B. C. 561), 
Evil Merodach was assassinated by Neriglissar (called by Jose- 
phus, Niglissaros), the son-in-law of Nebuchodonoser. This king 
in the fourth year of his reign (B. C. 557) was killed in the battle 
with Cyrus 5 which is narrated, III. 3. § § 56-70. He was succeeded 
by his son I^aborosoarchod, who is probably the one who killed the 
son of Gobryas (Cf. IV. 6. § 4), and caused Gadatas to be mutilated 
(Cf. V. 2. § 28). He was put to death on account of his tyranny, 
after a weak and inglorious reign of nine months. Nabonned (the 
Labynetus of Herodotus, and the Belshazzar c/ the Bible), one oi 
the conspirators, ascended die throne and after a reign of seventeen 
years was slain (B. C. 540), at the taking of Babylon by the Mudes

has assigned the divinities and religious ceremonies of the Greeks 
to the Persians. As Vesta was the divinity who presided over fire, 
there was a propriety in designating her in this place, since the 
Persians were worshippers of the fire, and also of the earth, which, 

as Barker remarks, this goddess also represented. Jit naxoojoy.

this explanation : " Nonne exercitus tuus exigua tiiri videtur pars 
totius gentis Persicae, ita ut plures multo inde arcessi possint?" 
But this is not the sense which the passage requires. Cyaxares 
seems to wonder that Cyrus had not added the Persians to the enu- 
meration, which had just been made of the Median and Armenian 
forces, wherefore he inquires in effect : What then do you think the 
Persian force? which you have brought so inconsiderable, as not to 
increase our naniber ? Cyaxares wished to draw out from Cyrus

'lie exact number of troops, which were approaching from Persia 
of which he had as yet been kept in ignorance (cf. § 3 init). This 
appears evident from the reply of Cyrus, in which he waves all fur- 
ther conversation in respect to the want of men until another time.

8. Ovy.ovv as a perispomenon (S. § 19. 3) is properly an interroga- 
tive, nonne igitur ? By frequent use, however, its interrogative force 
became gradually weakened, until it came frequently to signify 
ergo, igitur. This change of usage may be seen, by putting the 
sentence here in an interrogative form : Is it not true then that in 
this kind of fighting (iv xovxoj) = certainly then in this kind of 

fighting. Cf. K. § 325. R. 7. ol bUyoi, the few ; xojv noXXSiv,

instead of the optative in the dependent clause, gives life to the nar-

Hystaspes himself was a taxiarch, and those whom Cyrus addresses 
by the appellation <w avdgsq are certainly distinguished from ol iral- 
qoi (i. e. drjfiotai), whom he had called to the order of the homotimi 
(II. 1. §§ 15-19). Reference is had to the education, which the 
homotimi received in Persia, and of which the common soldiers had 
been deprived, in consequence of the want of pecuniary means. Cf. 
I. 2. § 15. Cyrus here proposes questions to the taxiarchs, in order 
to ascertain what progress the soldiers had made in the new disci-

conqueri de injuria : Hystaspes eum ad se venire jusserat, neque 
adeo potuerat videre, an coquus incepisset ab ultimis, unde Xen.

position of ocuat would be better after ofiixooxaxa. But otjuat evi- 
dently refers to voxdxovq Xaftfidvovxaq, which gives the reason, why 
the portions were small when Hystaspes was served = the pieces 
were small, as I suppose, because we were served last and the 

larger portions had all been selected. XaXsififtava t\v. " In order

the rewards of virtue, which are obtained only by great labor and

in the sense of even-going, i. e. preserving the same celerity of move- 
ment. This is the interpretation of Ruhnk. Cf. Liddell and Scott, 
sub voce. But Fischer contends, that this is not the true exposition, 
on the ground that adtxav, according to the laws of interpretation, 
ought to receive a similar signification, which applied to horses 
would be senseless, and also because such a chariot could not be 
compared to argdt^vua nsi&o^svov. He proposes therefore this ex- 
planation : currum aptum et idoneum ad ea facienda, quorum causa 
factus comparatusque est adeoque utilem. The majority of critics 
follow in the main this explanation of Fischer, although for my part 
I cannot but believe, that the interpretation of Ruhnk. is the true 
one. adtxojv, ill-matched, or perhaps, ungovernable, unmanage- 
able, i. e. horses that are uneven in their movement, going rapidly at 
one time and slowly at another. In this sense it harmonizes with 
the definition I have given to Stxaiov. — — tl oixzlo &ai, bene adminis

place through the whole extent of the army, and not about its repe-

lowed by the optative. Cf. K. § 337. 7. Sturz himself (under ndq

the first clause the subjunctive expresses something which does

consequence however, of the false display of the aoyiaxat, and the 
skill with which they perverted truth, they came by degrees into 
public odium, and were severely handled by Socrates, Plato, Aris- 
tophanes, and others. As the sophist here spoken of, had been seen

quents as he himself -was, Cyrus should not follow his example by

ng on it ; by the accusative of the person and genitive of the thing 
(II. 3. § 21) when one admires a person on account of some quality. 
Sometimes the genitive depends on a preposition (V. 2. § 12), and 
is often exchanged for the dative with a preposition. Cf. K. § 274.

of owcpQojv, which is applied frequently to a chaste and modest fe-

accurately. But it would be difficult in that case to see the use cf 
nooq tavxovq, which constructed with ydtav would make the clause 
very complete in its sense : because they think (S. § 222. 1) that they

Poppo, Lange, and Nobbe read x&y.ga xd8\ Born, brackets xdv.ga s

evidently used tie ixxizaiq, i. e. as though the speaker pointed with his 
finger to the heights, which the Persians had taken possession of 
(see N. on I. 3. § 5), it may be easily seen how the grammarians 
added xdxga as an explanatory word, which thus in process of time 
crept into the text. icpaaav, assented, answered in the affirma- 
tive, i. e. they acknowledged that they desired peace from other 
considerations, than the one mentioned by Cyrus.

not consider allot as superfluous, since it is employed to distinguish 
more fully between the Chaldeans, to whom the proposition was 
made, and the Armenians, who had possession of the land in ques- 
tion. ZStlvat, vfilv, that it be permitted you. This infinitive de-

ar.oa I'/otev. The Chaldaeans supposed from the words of Cyrus (d 
ra. axon fyoixs ai'/f/ra/a addressed to the Armenians), that the heights 
were to be held by the Armenians. Cyrus addresses the same words 
(t« axon ov/u/ua/a iltj) to the Chaldseans, when the Armenian king 
from a similar misapprehension of their import, in turn expressed his 
dissatisfaction, that the heights should be held by the Chaldseans. 
Having thus craftily drawn from both parties the assertion, that 
neither would be safe, if the heights were held in possession by the 
other, Cyrus is furnished, with an occasion, on the grounds of justice 
and expedience, of taking possession of the heights himself. A si- 
milar result is found in the arbitration of Quintus Fabius Labeo, 
between the inhabitants of Nola and the Neapolitans, adjudging 
them both to the Roman people. Cf. Cic. de Off. I. 10.

The word seems to designate those high officers of the army, who 
were present as occasion demanded, to execute the orders of the 
commander-in-chief. From a military, the word came to be trans- 
ferred also to a civil use, and is applied to the principal officers 
of the government, and the friends and counsellors of the king in the 
time of peace. It often occurs in the subsequent portions of the Cy- 
ropaedia, and may always be understood in one or the other of the 

above senses. xd y.akojq I'/ovxa, the things (of the army) which

§ 70) from the enemy. oti . . . . i£f'Qxoixo, that they were (His- 
torical Present) ready to fight, in case any one should make an erup- 
tion from the camp of the Assyrians. In the use of the indicative in 
the apodosis, and the optative in the protasis, the general principle 
of certainty and contingency, whicl* these moods respectively repre 
sent, is observed (See N. on II. 1. § 9). It must always be remem 
bered, that the optative mood in Greek is nothing more than the subj 
of the hist, tenses, and what is said of the contingency denoted by 

the one applies equally to the other. «<j ovStlq xxvxtgfjti, when

referred. Schneider supplies ol Inntiq. Fischer refers it to the 
horsemen, who had been ordered to scour the camp of the enemy. 
Zeune supposes it to relate to the infantry of Cyrus, who were sur- 
rounding the camp of the Assyrians. But this opinion is not worth 
refuting, for in that case, what need would there have been of the 
horsemen, spoken of in the beginning of the section, since none 
could have broken through this cordon of troops and left the camp ; 
or how could it have been possible for some 30,000 men, the number 
of the Persian forces, to have surrounded a camp of such extent, as 
that of the Assyrians must have been, to contain such great num- 
bers (cf. nolXanXaotovq ^wv avxojv, § 40, infra). As usual in such 
cases, many attempts to solve the difficulty have been made by al- 
tering the text, among which that of Weckherlin is eminent for the 
boldness with which it cuts the Gordian knot : ol [ilv Sr\ xaq xontSaq 
— o* dh xa l bnla y etc. For my part I am inclined to adopt the inter- 
pretation of Lange, who refers it to a special guard detailed for this 
occasion, who accompanied the herald (implied in h.-rjovguv), and de- 
prived of their heads those who disobeyed the edict. This is by no 
means free of difficulties, yet, on the whole, seems to be the best so- 
lution. It leaves the horsemen to perform the work assigned to 
them, of killing all such as were found going off with their arms ; 
and provides a force sufficient to see that those, who remained and 
did not attempt to flee away, obeyed the edict of Cyrus, that they 
should deposit their arms in the place which was designated for that 
purpose. In this case we may understand xiriq with l/ovrtq, which 
is frequently to be supplied with participles.

that he intended, no doubt, to restore her to her husband. Perhaps 
he signified his intention of taking her at some future time in part, 
that he might not seem to the Medes ungrateful for their splendid 
gift. 

4. <F after 'Eojnay.aq connects this question in a measure to what 
Cyrus had just said : and have you seen. This use of SI in questions 
and answers is quite common, as may be seen in the citations of 

Ki'ihner (Jelf 's edit. § 768. 4). aim tyatye, no indeed. So we say 

in common parlance, not 1= no, emphatic. Cf. Mt. § 465. 2. The 
next I'ywye in the reply of Araspes, is highly emphatic : but I saw 

her. 8r\xa, ( = 3ri emphatic), in sooth. This word is to be taken 

with to TTQuJTov ov dit'yvo)f.tfv avrr\v. That so beautiful a woman at 
first even should not be distinguished from her companions was so 
strange, that Araspes confirms his account of the affair by drjra, 
which here answers very nearly to our common expression : if you 

will believe me. x a / ta ^ Tf Y<*Q h.d&rjTo as a symbol of her grief, 

on account of her captivity, and the adverse fortune of the party to

subordinate in order to represent the fact, that Panthea was yet un- 
distinguished from her women servants, except that while sitting 
she had struck the beholders as of surpassing beauty : all about her

tion Crusius seems to adopt. The Orientals rent their garments 
(either the outer or the inner and sometimes both), from the neck 
in front down to the girdle. Cf. Jahn's Archaeol. § 211. For my 
part I am inclined to think, that in the extremity of her grief, Pan- 
thea tore down the upper part of the shawl which covered her neck 
and bosom, and thus exposed those parts of her person to Araspes 
and those with him. It may be remarked that the peplum was the 
garment, which the Orientals usually rent as an expression of rage 
or grief. Cf. III. 1. § 13 ; 3. § 67. See also Smith's Diet. Gr. and

answered in this manner. He then chances nwafvuv into Ttaoaii-zlv.

text, which is not at all justified by MS. authority, together with 
the harshness of the transposition, renders this solution at least a 
suspicious one. Schneider refers ntaatvtiv to the speech of Cyrus : 
uterque respondet (ita ut juberent Cyrum) pcrgere in ccepto ser- 
mone. According to this mode of interpretation, le'ytiv must be sup- 
plied after pekfoi. But this seems to deprive the passage of force 
and spirit, inasmuch as it represents Cyrus as timidly pausing in his 
speech, until encouraged and exhorted to proceed by his auditors. 
I prefer, therefore, to refer moalvtiv to the great object, which they 
all unquestionably had at this time in view, viz. the subjugation of 
the Assyrian empire : that he should accomplish those things which 
he intended to accomplish, or was desirous of accomplishing. The

camped, i. e. in the territory of Gobryas. The inference is, that they 
were restrained from doing this by their sense of inferiority. The 
superiority of the Persians was therefore acknowledged even in the 
present state of affairs ; but in the judgment of Cyrus, to march 
against the Assyrians would strike still greater terror into them, 
and make a more conspicuous display of the power of the Persian

of Gobryas in respect to the Persians, had been corrected by his in-

would make fiol doxsl interjectional (i. e. separated from a construc-

by fcofitv (= Perfect. K. § 255. R. 2 ; S. § 209. N. 2). But if Go- 
bryas had changed his mind in respect to the Persians, it does not 
follow that the officers of Cyrus were acquainted with that fact. 
And even had the speaker known it, he might have chosen to pre- 
tend ignorance in respect to it, or to assume that Gobryas had yet a 
contemptuous opinion of the Persians, in order to give his remarks 
point and force. SaQEiy.uv. See N. on V. 2. § 7.

sides, f.ia.xzo&ai ovv nvi, to fight in company with one, to aid one in

contend with one. See Crusius' Lex. sub voce ovv. It is not to be 
supposed that Gobryas made this proposal to the Assyrian king in 
earnest, but only as a ruse to draw him out and to expose his weak- 
ness. Contrary to the opinion of Schneider, Poppo, Bornemann, 
Fischer, etc., Lange, after Zeune, and Weiske, refers avtbq to Cy- 
rus, who challenges the Assyrian king to a single combat, in order 
the more to provoke him to come forth with his army to battle. 
Zeune and Weiske, however, think that a single combat is not ne- 
cessarily referred to, but that Cyrus would enter into battle without 

the aid of the Hyrcanians and Gobryas. ( 6ti ... . nit&sod-ai, is

The fondness of the Greeks for the personal construction, arose in

is somewhat difficult to determine who these forces were. Weiske 
conjectures, that they composed a part of the troops for which Cyrus 
had sent into Persia (IV. 5. § 16). But it would seem from V. 5. 
§ 3, that these soldiers had not yet arrived. The Persians who 
came with Cyrus to the aid of the Medes, had all received the 
urmor of the homotimi (II. 1. § 16), and therefore these light-armed 
troops must have been a body raised for the occasion, or there must 
nave been a slip in the author's memory in respect to what he had 
written. It is evident that the Artabazus, who is here spoken of aa 
their commander, was a Persian, and not the Mede of the same 
name, who is spoken of as so passionately devoted to Cyrus (cf. VL 
I. § 9) His name does not appear again in the work. The

passage is encompassed with difficulties which perhaps it were vain 

to attempt to clear up. 'AvSafivaq. The name of this Median 

leader is not again mentioned. The same is true ofEyfiaq, 'Aqxov- 
xaq, QafiQoddaq, and Jafidraq, which names are doubtless all ficti- 
tious, and were probably inserted in order, among the other good 
qualities of Cyrus, to give opportunity to praise his power of 
memory, in that he could call so many persons by name. Cf.

of Cyrus. It may here be remarked, that the taxiarchs of each na- 
tion marched in front abreast, and were followed each by his com- 
pany in single file (i<p hoq), which would make each oblong body 
100 men in depth. On the right of these oblong squares, were their 
respective shieldmen, and on the left, their archers.

The Attics not unfrequently use the Doric genitive especially in

do not regard it as very probable) that these machines were em- 
ployed in the battle with Croesus (cf. VII. 1. § 34. See N. also on

evident from the fact, that it was not until they were nearly or quite 
made (Cf. § 25, infra), that Cyrus received intelligence, that the 
king of Assyria had gone to Lydia to raise up a force against him. 
I suppose, therefore, that these machines were constructed to be 
used in demolishing fortresses, and especially to be employed in the 
siege of Babylon. The capture of this city was the great object 
which Cyrus now had in view, and in respect to which his war with 
Croesus must be regarded as subordinate, and occupying in the 
history here given of Cyrus the place of an episode. xixxovaq =*

soldiers carried were consumed, when these supplies would be of

heavy masses of troops opposed to it. If we so interpret, however, 
as to make the three lines of the army of Cyrus (viz. the #woaxo<po-

Buttmann (§ 142. N. 3) explains the instances of a nominative with 
the infinitive, on the principle of attraction with the nominative of 
the preceding verb. He says, however, that he knows no other ex- 
ample of this, than the case where two infinitives with different sub- 
jects are dependent on the same verb, of which only one has the 
same subject with the finite verb. Poppo after Zonaras thinks it 
better to omit the pronoun, and he therefore brackets it in his edition. 
For my part, I cannot but regard the use of the nominative here, as 
designed to promote emphasis by its departure from the usual case 

with the infinitive. yr\v InUaaa&ai, to array myself in earth, to

order to effect this circular attack. It would seem, that they feared 
to wheel the wings in a straight line, lest they should approach the 
army of Cyrus before they could be supported by the centre, and 
therefore, they made on the right and left a long circuit, in order 
that the centre and wings might approach with the same relative 
distance from the enemy. This would effect that the legs of the 
gammas would be separated from their main stem (cf. noXv yan ....

io Poppo) in which the army of Cyrus is represented by the dots, 

and that of Croesus by the lines :

sweep of some distance, and thus the line would for a time be much 
extended, until such a position was gained that an attack on three 
sides might be simultaneously made upon the Persian army. This 
view, however, of the movement of the Lydian army is not disen-

deducing more from the words than they mean. I prefer, there-

reading of Zeune from the Guelf. MS. Schneider adheres to the 
vulgar reading ti y&dowfitv. This remark of Cyrus to Hystatpes 
was quite jocular : if we anticipate the enemy in killing them (l. e. 
if we kill the enemy before that they kill us) none of us will be slain.

recollected, that the station of Hystaspes was opposite the right 
wing of that part of the Lydian army opposed to the front of the 
Persians (see the figure in N. on § 6). Abradatas with his chariots 
stood at his right and was opposed to the centre of the enemy. The 
request of Hystaspes, that Cyrus should give in charge to others 
the enemy who were approaching the flank of the Persian army 
(xohq (f iy. nlayiov), shows that in common with Abradatas, he felt 
some concern in respect to that movement of the Lydian army 
Some suppose, however, that Hystaspes in a sportive vein of the

braggadocio says, that Cyrus must give orders to those on the flanks 
to charge the enemy who are making the flank movement, in order 
that they (i. e. the enemy) may not remain idle (onus firjS' oltot

time, the present of this verb is analogous to *?«*, i. e. it has a future 
signification (S. § 209. N. 3). While the 2 aor. (i).&tlv) has a de- 
cided preference for the meaning to come, tQxzaQ-ai, partakes equally 
of the meanings, to go and to come. In the compounds, the preposi- 
tions generally define the signification. Cf, Butt. Ir. Verbs, p. 107.

had told Chrysantas and those with him (§ 8), that he would be 
present with them to pursue the enemy, proceeded along the lines 
to the left wing, speaking words of encouragement to the leaders 
and soldiers whom he passed, and that he returned to the right wing

Lange thinks that nobq xtoaq which follows, refers to the front line

proached constituted their right wing, which name was still given to 
them, although by their new position, they constituted an indepen-

right and left flank. It would therefore be turning the tables upon

lowing clause seems to be : if you attack the enemy in flank, with 
your troops formed into a phalanx, you will fight in the strongest 
order of battle against them in the weakest. The grammatical 
structure of these passages can easily be seen, and no comment of 

this nature, therefore, seems necessary. ndvxwq. See N. on

almost frantic fierceness with which he charged the enemy, Abra- 
datas reminds us of the fiery valor with which Edward Bruce is 
represented by Sir Walter Scott as charging the enemy at the 
battle of Bannockburn : 

" With foot in stirrup hand on mane, 
Fierce Edward Bruce can scarce restrain 
His own keen heart, his eager train, 
Until the archers gained the plain ; 

Then, M mount ye gallants free !" 
He cried ; and vaulting from the ground, 
His saddle every horseman found. 
On high their glittering crests they toss, 
As springs the wild-fire from the moss ; 
The shield hangs down on every breast, 
Each ready lance is in the rest, 

And loud shouts Edward Bruce, — 
Forth, Marshal, on the peasant foe ! 
We'll tame the terrors of their bow 

And cut the bow-string loose ! 
Then spurs were dashed in charger's flanks, 
They rush among the archer ranks. 
High o'er their heads the weapons swung, 
And shriek and groan and vengeful shout 
Give note of triumph and of rout ! "

the most delicate manner, that he would provide Panthea with a 
husband, and so by her reply she seems to have understood it. It 
must be remembered, that these things were looked upon by the 
ancients in a very different manner from what they are regarded

Cyrus supposed that she expressed her willingness to designate in 
due time, the person under whose protection she would wish to be 
placed, she in reality meant, that she would follow her deceased 
husband. Cf. iyoi ydo tlfi iy.tla onoi, 7ionevteov, Soph. Ajax, 675.

marring the picture, nor be added without destroying its beautiful

out of reach of the enemies' weapons, first with their backs towards 
the city, then at right angles towards the left, and then with faces 
again towards the city, and so on, is to me inexplicable, unless it 
was the object of Cyrus to display to the enemy the good orcei

tents, is only explainable on the ground just alluded to, or what is 
the same thing, in order that Xenophon might have opportunity to 
give his readers an idea of the qualities of his hero as a tactician. 
Certainly no commander so prudent as Cyrus would risk his army 
by surrounding a great city, which according to the best accounts 
was 8£ miles square, or 72-J- miles in circumference (see Maj. 
Rcnnell on the Geography of Herodotus), and from which a suc- 
cessful sally might at any time be made upon his line thus attenua-

through the city, which, had Cyrus been disposed to have done so 
foolish a thing as to surround the city, would have prevented him 

from accomplishing his purpose. oaoj .... ftiTtfldM.ovTo, and by

city might be stormed, if the river was fordable, but Gobryas say- 
ing that it was in no respect fordable, Cyrus replies to Chrysantas, 
that things above their power ought not to be undertaken. He then 
gives directions immediately for digging a trench, the true object 
of which he keeps to himself, lest it should be somehow commuiiica* 
tud to the enemy. It is probable that the idea of draining the river.

side ; or in other words, from the left bank of the river above the 
city, to the same bank below the city. Perhaps a similar excava- 
tion was made upon the right bank of the river. That the invading 
army had means for crossing the stream is evident from § 7, where 
Cyrus proposes to take the city by famine, which he could not have 
done had he not been able to have transported a part of his army 
across, so as to block up the place on every side. The trench which 
had been dug around the city for a defence, as Colton remarks, w T as

the army by means of them could pass over the trench when the 
time came to render it necessary.

There is some obscurity in this passage, but upon considerable 
reflection, I am inclined to believe that these palm-trees were laid 
horizontally, at right angles with the trench, each end resting upon 
solid earth, so that in case the waters of the river burst through into 
the trench, these palm-trees bending upwards would sustain the 
weight, although their centres were supported by no earth beneath 

them. vTto pdiQovq arw xngrovvtat, bend up under the weight. 

Respecting this tree Aulus Gellius remarks in substance thus : 
" that Aristotle and Plutarch have mentioned a very wonderful 
matter ; for they say, if you put upon the palm-tree [lying horizon- 
tally] a weight too great for it to sustain, that it will bend neither 
down nor sideways, but rises against the weight, and struggles and 

bends upward." Colton. nl y.avd-rilioi, large asses employed

Xgyaavraq xal ttmv tide. Chrysantas seems to have been always 
ready to second the wise and prudent councils of Cyrus (cf. II. 2. 
§ 19 ; IV. 3. § 15 ; VI. 2. § 21), whence it happened, that he arose 
from being the commander of a company to the highest rank in the 
army, and at last was rewarded with the satrapy of Lydia and Ionia 
(cf. IV. 1. § 4 ; VIII. 3. § 16 ; 6. § 7). In thus raising soldiers of 
merit step by step to the highest grade, Cyrus reminds us of what 
was practised on a still larger scale and with more system by Na- 
poleon Bonaparte, whose marshals were almost all taken from the 
ranks, and who bestowed his rewards with the most rigid adherence 

to merit. alrobq depends on iTZilstxpei. Mt. § 412. 7. ra-

many 'poor rich men, and it will probably hold true, that the more a

D. APPLETON & CO:S PUBLICATIONS. 



Xenophon's Anabasis : 

With Explanatory Notes for the use of Schools and Colleges In the 
United States. By JAMES R. BOISE, Professor of Greek in 
the University of Michigan. 12mo, 393 pages. 

A handsome and convenient edition of this great classic, really adapted to the wants 
of schools, has long been needed ; the want is here met by Prof. Boise in a manner that 
leaves nothing to be desired. Decidedly the best German editions, whether text or com- 
mentary be considered, have appeared within the last few years ; and of these Mr. Boise 
has made free use ; while, at the same time, he has not lost sight of the fact that the 
classical schools of this country are behind those of Germany, and that simpler and more 
elementary explanations are therefore often necessary in a work prepared for American 
schools. Nothing has been put in the notes for the sake of a mere display of learning — 
pedantry is out of place in a school-book ; and nothing has been introduced by way of 
comment except what can be turned to practical use by the reader. 

An historical Introduction, which will enable the pupil to enter on his task intelli- 
gently, is prefixed. An abundance of geographical information, embodying the latest 
discoveries of travellers, is supplied ; and the whole is illustrated with Kicpert's excellent 
map, showing the entire route of the ten thousand on their retreat. 

The First Three Books of Anabasis : 

With Explanatory Notes and References to Hadley and Kuhncr's 
Greek Grammars, and to Goodwin's Greek Moods and Tenses. 
A copious Greek-English Vocabulary, and Kiepert's Map of the 
Route of the Ten Thousand. 12mo, 268 pages. 

Xenophon's Memorabilia of Socrates : 

With Notes and an Introduction. By R. D. C. ROBBIXS, Professor 
of Languages in Middlebury College, Vermont. 12mo, 421 pages. 

This will be found an exceedingly useful book for College classes. The text is lar^o 
and distinct, the typography accurate, and the notes judicious and scholarly. Instead 
>t' referring the student to a variety of books, few of which are within his reach, the edi- 
tor has wisely supplied whatever is necessary. An admirable treatise on the Life of 
Socrates introduces the work, and English and Greek Indexes render it easy to refer to 
the text and notes.

D. APPLET ON & CO:S PUBLICATIONS. 

Selections from Herodotus ; 

Comprising mainly such portions as give a Connected History of the 
East to the Fall of Babylon and the Death of Cyrus the Great. 
By HERMAN M. JOHNSON, D. D., Professor of Philosophy 
and English Literature in Dickinson College. 12mo, 185 pages, 

The present selection embraces such parts of Herodotus as give a connected history 
of Asiatic nations. These portions are not only particularly interesting in themselves, 
but open to the student a new field, inasmuch as the other Greek and Eoman authors 
commonly put into his hands leave this period of history untouched. 

Herodotus is peculiarly adapted to academical reading. It has charms for the stu ■ 
dent which no other text-book possesses, on account of the simple elegance of the style 
and the liveliness of the narrative. In preparing his notes, the editor has borne in mind 
that they are intended for learners in the earlier part of their classical course ; he has 
therefore made the explanations in the former part of the work quite full, with frequent 
references to such grammars as are in the hands of most students. 

The notes proper are purely explanatory and grammatical. Other remarks, in the 
way of criticism or investigation, are appended to the several chapters, for the sake of 
awakening reflection and inciting to further inquiry. 

A condensed treatise on the Ionic Dialect, and the peculiar forms of declension and 
conjugation used by Herodotus, removes one of the most serious difficulties that has 
heretofore embarrassed the student in reading this author. If this chapter is learned in 
advance, the dialect forms, otherwise so troublesome, will be recognized without the 
slightest difficulty. 

The text is printed in large, bold type, and accompanied with a Map of the regions 
described. 

Sophocles' (Bdipus Tyrannus. 

With English Notes for the use of Students in Schools and Colleges. 
By HOWARD CROSBY, A. M., Professor of the Greek Language 
and Literature in the New York University. 12mo, 138 pages, 

The object had in view in this publication is to furnish to college students the mas • 
terpiece of the greatest of Greek tragic poets in a convenient form. T$o learned criticism 
oh the text was needed or has been attempted. The Tauchnitz edition has been chiefly 
followed, and such aid is rendered, in the way of notes, as may assist, not render need- 
less, the efforts of the student. Too much help begets indolence; too little, despair, 
the author has striven to present the happy mean. 

The inviting appearance of the text and the merit of the commentary have mad* 
this volume a favorite wherever it has been used.
